Arm changelog in Linux 6.5

Let’s now go into details about some of the changes made to the Arm architecture:

The arm64 permission-indirection extension (PIE) is now supported. There is no new functionality resulting from this support now, but it is needed for some upcoming features such as the Guarded Control Stack Extension (GCS).
